I'm always challenged to come up with my family's favorite Mexican food. This is a tried and true recipe that is so easy to make that no one knows how simple but delicious Chile Verde can be. ***** Served with Recipe#282467 makes a complete meal ;)
Spinach and Monterey Jack cheese are wrapped in corn tortillas and baked with green salsa. You can substitute yogurt for the sour cream if you want a lighter version. This is super simple, and even hard-core Texan meat eaters who have never eaten a vegetable in their lives like it.
